Malwina Matysek, BACP

Malwina Matysek is a counsellor who blends cognitive and relational approaches to therapy. She uses practical strategies and a calm, collaborative style to help people make changes that matter. Malwina works in English and Polish and practices in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas. Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse.

Malwina also supports people facing addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, and challenges with self-esteem. Practical concerns such as parenting strain, career stress and compassion fatigue are also addressed. She pays attention to how past relationships and attachment styles affect current patterns.

She works with people experiencing ADHD, abandonment issues, body image concerns, communication problems, and blended family dynamics. The therapeutic work mixes talking, noticing patterns, and learning new skills for day-to-day life. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change.

With four years of experience, Malwina draws on client-centred principles to keep conversations grounded in each person’s priorities. She supports goal-setting and practical steps so progress is visible. If someone is ready to start, the emphasis is on small, manageable actions and steady forward movement.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It supports people facing anxiety, low mood and major life changes by focusing on what matters most and taking small steps towards it. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood or sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, trust and communication concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and past experiences and then suggest which methods to try first. That plan can be adjusted as the work progresses so the person stays involved in decisions about their care.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit around work, family and other commitments. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone can be quicker when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to use practical therapeutic tools in everyday life.
